U2 were “thinking about some special guests” for their return to Paris less than a month after their concerts in the French capital were postponed by the terror attacks. At Sunday night’s show at AccorHotels Arena, the band were joined by Patti Smith, who performed a portion of “Gloria” and “People Have the Power” with the band. Smith’s appearance closed out an event that was the most high-profile concert since the November 13th attacks, and throughout the evening, Bono paid tribute to the victims both in Paris as well as those killed this week in San Bernardino, California.
